We always called those toads, too…but lately Wynnie has been asking what the difference is between frogs and toads and now I’m not sure if what I’ve always called toads are really toads. Must research online.

I couldn’t get any of the videos to load, but that might just be me.

I THINK that’s a garter snake. It looks an awful lot like all the jillions of snakes that our rat terriers used to carry up on the porch when I was a child and we lived in Louisiana. Green and yellow striped. They are not poisonous, and bit the dogs all the time. However, when a water moccasin would bite them they swelled up huge. It would never kill the dogs as it certainly would a person, but you sure could tell what they’d been tangling with just looking at them.
And we always called those kinds of frogs, toads. But that certainly doesn’t mean that it’s for sure not a frog. The cutest thing in the picture is the angle of the shot of the frog and then beneath it, your belly sticking out! Heh!
For some reason the second video clip didn’t load…
